The Kennedy Space Center offers exciting ways to see the NASA facilities. For an introduction, embark upon the Kennedy Space Center tour, running throughout the day and included with admission. Bring your camera to the LC-39 Observation Gantry and capture panoramic launch pad views.
Special Interest Tours provide an even more in depth look and commentary from expert guides, but seating is limited – you’ll want to call ahead to reserve your space. The NASA Up Close Tour gets closest to the launch pads and now stops at the International Space Station Center. Or choose the Cape Canaveral: Then and Now Tour and explore the historic launch sites of the manned Mercury and Gemini programs and the active unmanned rocket programs of today.
Millions of people all over the world held their breath while a single man put his foot onto the moons surface. It was a journey that began just a short distance from where the Appollo/Saturn V Center stands today.
For those who remember, the event remains in their minds just as those footprints remain in the lunar soil. Here along the tour route, it returns spectacularly to life. From “Go Fever,” to the thunderous launches and the mission dangers, the moon landing still raises goosebumps over 30 years later.
